JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (May 13, 2019) – Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class Seth Linton, a preventive medicine technician at Naval Branch Health Clinic Jacksonville, uses a microscope to examine mosquitos. Linton, a native of Lakeland, Florida, recently returned from a nine-month deployment to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, as part of Joint Task Force/Joint Medical Group. “We ensured high water quality standards were being met, and conducted habitability and food sanitation inspections to prevent communicable diseases. We conducted weekly surveillance to detect mosquito-borne diseases in the mosquito population, and assisted with pesticide fogging to reduce the risk of a mosquito-borne disease outbreak.” Established June 17, 1898, the Hospital Corps cares for sailors and Marines on the battlefield, at sea, under the sea, and in military treatment facilities worldwide.
